    Yeah it's 2240# also know as a long ton, wished I would've googled that before I made a post looking like a tool. What a ripoff !!! Basically they are ripping you off for 240#.

    So with that being said, let's do some math:
    8.35 net tons 16,700#
    8.35 gross ton 18,704 #



    So for every 8.35 gross tons they buy they basically get 2004# for free vs buying by the net ton.
